Changelog & Caveats:
The following are some of the missing features
(some are excluded currently due to lack of time in porting them,some because they depend on third-party s/w
and some can never be supported for windows)

The MPI-related examples have an associated Makefile, to help build them.

Distributed simulation is run with the aid of "Open MPI". As Open MPI's "mpirun" utility requires a console application, distributed-simulation needs to be a console app (i.e Windows GUI components won't be available).

nms* examples are not included as they use "variable-length arrays" with are C99 features not supported on Visual C++.These examples might be made available in a future version.
